Chapter 53: Victory and Defeat (2)

Before, Lu Yao scolded Wang Jun for being a gutless bandit hiding behind Xianbei people, although it was a scheme, he was telling the truth. The Youzhou army was divided between Hu and Jin, and although the Jin people were strong, they were accustomed to relying on the majesty of the Hu cavalry. To be honest, they are those who can only fight with the wind, and in Lu Yao's opinion, they are no different from local chickens and tile dogs. The Daijun cavalry took advantage of their hesitation to suddenly launch a counterattack, and more than a dozen cavalry teams galloped back and forth, charging violently like birds scattering clouds, and immediately cutting the infantry army formation of the first formation of the Youzhou Army into pieces that could not care for each other.

Lu Yao did not love to fight, and gathered the soldiers who were scattered to kill the enemy along the way, leading them to pass through the routs who were scattered and fleeing as fast as possible, and rushed towards the heart of the Youzhou army. The distance between the two armies was not far away, and it was located on the plain of a flat river, but in a moment, the Xianbei army with black pressure had already been seen. As the distance got closer, it was seen that the formation of those Xianbei people could be described as scattered, and many cavalry were shouting and running murderously, but they did not know what they were doing; Countless dismounted soldiers ran around, gathering in a handful to talk to each other, but set aside their horses at will.

In addition to the war horses that they rode in battle, the heavy armored cavalry of the Xianbei of Duan Bu often carried pack horses with armor and weapons on their backs. Since the master was not there, many horses were scattered on the large meadow to graze and rest by themselves, with a low-brow and pleasing appearance, without the slightest sense of tension.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yao's heart was first relieved, and then tightened.

To his relief, although he didn't know what had happened to the Youzhou Army, it was obvious that those Xianbei people had not yet recovered from it. The leaders of the various divisions do not seem to be in the headquarters, and the command of their subordinates is almost out of control, and the soldiers are out of combat mode. Judging by their numbers, the light cavalry sent to outflank their own flanks at the beginning of the battle had not yet had time to turn around. If you want to defeat the armored cavalry that Danbu relied on to rampant in the Central Plains, now is the best chance.

However, Lu Yao also knew very well that the officers at all levels of Duan Xianbei were all experienced in a hundred battles, and no matter how bad the situation was, they would never be in chaos for a long time. What's more, the elite cavalry of the Xianbei people had never been put into battle on a large scale, and their strength was almost undamaged, and their strength was still far above that of Daijun. If they are given the opportunity to regroup, the situation will only become more and more difficult.

The timing is fleeting, and the key to victory or defeat is just around the corner. Even though most of the Daijun cavalry is still entangled with the Youzhou army, he must also attack! It is necessary to beat, disrupt, and beat the Xianbei people in the shortest possible time!

When Lu Yao thought of this, he didn't delay any longer. He immediately sent a few of his own soldiers back to urge the troops to step up their march, and then shouted loudly: "He Yun, spread the flag!" ”

"Yes!" Without hesitation, He Yun took out a military flag from a leather pouch hanging from the saddle, shook it away with a wave of his hand, and put it on the lance and raised it high. The flag was opened in the wind, and four big characters were written on the front: "Wu County Lu Yao".

This flag is the one that Lu Yao used in the Jinyang Army. Since Lu Yao became the general of the town side, it has been a long time since he was used. The two flags of "Eagle Yang General Lu" and "Daijun Taishou Lu" represent the center of the Daijun army where Lu Yao is located. And this banner of "Wu County Lu Yao" represents Lu Yao himself. As the military flag was unfurled, the Xianbei people on the opposite side observed it, and immediately pointed in this direction and shouted. And Lu Yao spotted a weak point in the Xianbei people's formation, and immediately urged his subordinate cavalry to rush over!

As the chief general of the imperial court, if he is brave, how can his subordinates be afraid and hesitate. The personal soldiers who followed Lu Yao's side, in addition to being brave, the most important thing was to be loyal and reliable, so most of them were composed of elite Jin soldiers who originally belonged to the beggar army. At this time, seeing Lu Yao leaping forward, many people's minds came to the moment when Yecheng was boiling and the soldiers and civilians of Yecheng were panicked, but Lu Yao turned the tide outside the Jianchun Gate and killed Jisang among the ten thousand troops.

"Kill the Xianbei people! Catch Wang Jun! Catch the land of the road! The soldiers' hearts were agitated, and they only felt a breath of blood coming out of their chests. They shouted in unison and gathered around Lu Yao, like arrows from the string, straight to the enemy formation.

As the war horse galloped, the wind whistled in his ears, and Lu Yao crashed into the queue of Xianbei people like lightning. As the yellow horse raised its head and neighed, two front hooves the size of a sea bowl stepped heavily on a stunned Xianbei warrior, kicking him to the point of breaking his tendons and fractures. With the impact speed of the war horse, Lu Yao stood upright and struggled to dance the lance from left to right.

The sharp tip of the lance carried a strong wind, like a little silver star crossing the arc, and the surging blood mist that it brought up instantly splashed Lu Yao's face. Under the action of the huge explosive force, several long and short knives and guns were exploded and flew half a day high, and some of the five or six Xianbei people who rushed were cut off by the waist, and some were disemboweled!

"Kill!" Lu Yao shouted sharply.

"Kill! Kill! The soldiers of Daijun responded to the peace, covering Lu Yao's left and right.

They formed a sharp arrow formation, and used the warriors who were strong and good at white-knuckle combat as arrows to rush forward and kill fiercely; He also has a good hand who is proficient in archery and can shoot a strong bow and a crossbow on a horse. Xianbei people did not expect the Daijun army to rush over so quickly, although many soldiers with their own bravery to resist forward, but could not stand the Daijun cavalry swords and guns, but also the fierce horses galloped, shouting like thunder, although only more than 200 horses, but brutally killed the heroic spirit of thousands of troops.

Gathered here is the heavy cavalry team that the Xianbei people are proud of. Each of them was clad in heavy iron armor, armed with heavy weapons such as lances or maces, and their horses were also breastplates and curtains made of animal skins, and once they formed a formation, even the mountains would collapse. But at this time, their leader, Duan Ji Lu, was urgently rushing to the Chinese army to explain to Wang Jun that many middle-level officers and their personal soldiers had been temporarily transferred to suppress the rioting Jin army. The heavy cavalry, without unified command, was at its weakest.

In an instant, Lu Yao's troops galloped back and forth in the queue of the Xianbei people, penetrating more than ten heavy military formations, and no one could stop them. The flag rolls in the wind, like a sail undulating in the furious sea, suddenly swallowed up by the dense enemy army, and suddenly leaps out of the raging waves, straight into the hinterland of the enemy army, and chops the waves forward!

Behind them, Chu Kun slashed with a knife in both hands, slashing a particularly fierce enemy general in two at the shoulder and cheek. This young soldier who rushed out of the sea of blood in the corpse mountain of Bingzhou has already become a rare fierce general of the Daijun army, and the more he faces a strong enemy, the more hearty he fights. Just as Chu Kun was about to dismount and go to the head of the enemy general, a man came from the slash of the horse, pointed in front of him and shouted: "Team leader, look! See! ”

Chu Kun raised his head violently, and the four characters of Lu Yao of Wu County, who were fluttering in the siege of the Xianbei cavalry, fell into his eyes. Chu Kun didn't hesitate. He immediately swung his knife and pointed forward, and rushed over first: "Follow General Lu!" ”

On another battlefield, Ni Yi met with Lu Yao's personal soldiers who sent the herald earlier. His command was quite effective, leading his two hundred light cavalry to quickly break away from the entanglement of the enemy's foot soldiers, sneaking through a ravine overgrown with grass behind a mound for more than two miles, taking advantage of the chaos of the Xianbei people's various divisions, and directly forced them to the nearest place. This area is the south side of the second formation of the Youzhou army, and it seems that it is slightly less affected by the chaos of the Chinese army, and those Xianbei people are noisily reorganizing their troops, intending to go to encircle Lu Yao's department.

"Haha, we're here at the right time...... Bring the axe! Ni Yi lowered his voice and smiled, took the blue and bright axe from the hands of his old comrades-in-arms, and slowly accelerated forward. Two hundred cavalry behind him followed and charged!
